Chapter 257: Getting a subordinate (3)

Arctur, a world that was mostly inhabited by humanoid goats.

It is ruled by an immortal realm cultivator and he had two wives. He had a son from each wife.

Guade was the son of the first wife (he was born a little late) whereas Jaude was the son of the second wife.

Even though that immortal realm cultivator favoured his mother a lot, after the death of his mother, Gaude started to suffer in the royal palace and at some point of time, he felt like he was alone in the huge royal place even when he was surrounded by many people.

So, finally, he decided to leave the royal palace and wanted to enjoy an adventurous life.

Before leaving, he said his thoughts to his royal father who didn't say anything and allowed Gaude to make his own choices; however, before leaving, his father gave him a black-coloured shield that would protect him from many attacks.

However, after leaving the palace, his true suffering started because of his older brother who was already announced as the 'Crown prince'.

Nevertheless, Gaude didn't bother about them as his true goal was adventuring. So, he joined the scouting squad who searches for cultivation resources and if possible gathering those resources by themselves.

"Speaking of your mother, do you want to know how she died?"

"What is it?"

His mother was the sore point for Gaude because she was the only one who truly cared for him in the entire world.

So, he raised his brows as he asked his older brother with a serious look on his face.

"Forget it. Since you want to be buried beside your mother's grave, I will gladly do it."

Finally, when he saw the expression on his young brother, Jaude was excited and intentionally shifted the topic.

"I asked you something."

All of a sudden, Gaude disappeared from his place and appeared beside Jaude before grabbing his collar, Gaude asked Jaude with an angry face.

"Okay okay. Calm down."

Jaude was not worried that his younger brother would kill because he knew unlike him, Gaude is not cruel enough to kill his family member.

'Puchi'

So, after distancing himself from Gaude, Jaude stroked the spear in his hand a little before piercing it through Gaude's chest.

"Missed your heart by a few inches."

Gaude didn't expect his younger brother to use the spear on him because he was already dying and he thought there was no need to do that.

However, he clearly underestimated the cruelty of his younger brother.

"Aargh"

Gaude groaned in pain as he floated back in the space.

"Since you want to know about it, I will fulfil your last wish and explain what really happened to your mother."

Looking at the slowly floating Gaude's body, Jaude started explaining the death beyond Gaude's mother.

"My mother and I were planning on killing you after our father enters the secluded cultivation; however, your mother learned about our assassination plan. As soon as she learned about it, she rushed to inform our father about it. But, my uncle…."

Gaude's eyes widened when he heard the starting lines of Jaude and after that, he didn't bother to listen to those words because he could guess what must have happened.

"So, it was your mother's older brother who killed her and threw the blame on one of the rebels."

After learning the reason behind the death of his mother, Gaude could not help but start crying as he started blaming himself. 

'Mother, if not for me, you would have still been alive.'

'Sigh...from the moment I was born into this world, I only brought more suffering to you.'

'However, I will at least kill one of the perpetrators behind your death, mother.'

He blamed himself for a few moments before coming to a decision that he should kill Jaude.

"Jaude, I never imagined I would fight you but you brought this upon you."

As soon as he finished his words, Gaude bit his finger and dripped his blood onto a small black coloured crystal.

"What? Where did you get that thing? It will kill everything within a 100-meter radius."

When he saw the black crystal in Gaude's hand, Jaude became anxious and without any hesitation, "Old man, where are you? If you don't come now, I can't give you your payment."

Even though Jaude could escape the blasting range, he will not have enough time to take his majestic spaceship along with him.

Even if he escaped, he can't go back to their world without the help of the spaceship. So, Gaue knew that Jaude would do anything to protect the spaceship.

'Swoosh'

As soon as Jaude shouted, an old goat-man appeared from the majestic spaceship and shouted, 'Golden arctur barrier'.

Soon, a huge barrier appeared that surrounded Jaude, the old goat man along with the majestic battleship.

"Die."

As for Gaude, after activating the destruction crystal with his blood, he threw that crystal at Jaude hoping it would kill them.

"I need to see whether they are dead or not. So, I need to live for a few more minutes."

With that thought in his mind, Gaude hurriedly rushed out of the destruction crystal's 100-meter range.

Unknowingly, he came to the portal of the Aecrath world and waited for some good news.

'Boom'

Soon, a huge explosion occurred in outer space that even pushed away the debris that was out of the 100-meter explosion range.

'Looks like the destruction crystal was more powerful than I thought.'

Gaude didn't expect the destruction crystal to be so powerful because even he who was more than 200 meters away from the destruction crystal felt his inner organ was shaking because of the explosion.

He didn't care about his body which was completely covered in injuries and looking very weak. Moreover, he was feeling dizzy; however, he was forcing himself to check whether Jaude died or not.

Gaude didn't wait for long because the smoke in the space started clearing away; however, when he saw the huge battleship which was still in perfect condition, Gaude was shocked because this is not what he had expected.

Even though he still didn't see Jaude, Guade could guess that Jaude and that old goat man who appeared at the last minute would be fine.

However, the truly pitiful ones were Jaude's subordinates who didn't know what Gaude threw at Jaude and why their master was so anxious as he called one of the top powerhouses from their world to save him.

Before they could know what was happening, they were blasted into nothingness.

"Well done, Bother Gaude. I didn't expect you to have one destruction crystal on your head. If not for Old man Metal, I would have died."

Soon, Gaude heard a familiar voice and saw his brother.

"Looks like I chose the right option of not giving you the antidote; otherwise, you would have killed me in the future."

Jaude spoke another line without waiting for Gaude to reply anything.

'I can't kill them in my current state. I need to escape from here and take revenge after I heal myself.'

Even though he thought like that, he didn't keep high hopes of surviving and directly rushed into Aecrath's world portal.

'As long as you save me, I will become your slave.'
